Researchers at the University of Washington developed small robotic devices that can change how they move through the air by 'snapping' into a folded position during their descent. According to study ...

Inspired by the paper folding art of origami, a University of Washington team created a paper model of a metamaterial that uses 'folding creases' to soften impact forces and instead promote forces ...

Bloom patterns could be useful, as engineers build folding structures to send to outer space. They’re also very pretty. Researchers have now found a new class of origami that they call bloom patterns, ...
